Eternal Life: Hundredfold Rewards

Chapter 551 - 306: Senior Brother Qingyun, I Have Reached the Quasi-Great True Monarch Realm!

"Its name is ’Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon’. This demon, whether in terms of body or power, has nearly reached the pinnacle level of a Tier Four Middle Grade Demon Beast."

"It is said that the inner core of this Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon can be refined into a certain special great pill urgently needed by the Ancient Spirit Sect."

"Fellow Daoist Ji Feng, as well as the Second Supreme Elder of the Ancient Spirit Sect, Fellow Daoist Jin Wuchen, the Quasi-Great True Monarch, recently pursued and hunted that Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon to Beihua State, but accidentally let it escape and lost its trail."

"Therefore, they wish for the Nascent Soul True Monarchs of Beihua State, including you and me, as well as Cangjian True Monarch and True Monarch of Yin and Yang, to jointly search and hunt down this Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon."

"They will provide a special Treasure-Seeking Mouse that can sense the trail of the Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon within a certain range."

"Once the mission is accomplished, each will receive a Tier Four Middle Grade Demon Beast Core as a reward."

Upon hearing this, Qi Chuan’s eyebrows slightly furrowed without leaving any trace.

"A Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon nearly reaching the pinnacle of Tier Four Middle Grade?"

"The Second Supreme Elder of the Ancient Spirit Sect, Fellow Daoist Jin Wuchen, the Quasi-Great True Monarch?"

He silently contemplated in his heart.

There are a few questions.

First, it is indeed rare to find a Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon at such a level, but the quality of the inner core of this demon is actually not very high.

Not to mention compared to a Sea Demon Core, even among terrestrial demon beasts at the same level, it is of middle-lower grade.

Can such a middle-lower grade demon pill truly be used to refine the special great pill urgently needed by the Ancient Spirit Sect?

Second, why are they making such a big effort to hunt down this Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon?

Even the Second Supreme Elder of the Ancient Spirit Sect, Jin Wuchen of the Quasi-Great True Monarch Realm, is here.

Additionally, they have promised a reward of a Tier Four Middle Grade Demon Beast Core.

It is important to know that mobilizing Qi Chuan, Qingyun True Monarch, Cangjian True Monarch, and True Monarch of Yin and Yang for the hunt requires a total reward of four Tier Four Middle Grade Demon Beast Cores.

This is already a significant cost.

Trading four Tier Four Middle Grade Demon Beast Cores for one inner core of the Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon seems like a tremendous loss.

I wonder how Ji Feng and Jin Wuchen calculated this transaction.

"Speaking of which, has your sect’s Second Supreme Elder, Fellow Daoist Jin Wuchen the Quasi-Great True Monarch, already arrived in Beihua State?" Suppressing the doubts in his heart, Qi Chuan curiously asked Ji Feng.

"Correct."

Ji Feng nodded lightly with a smile: "However, he has always been devoted to the Immortal Dao and disdains participating in gatherings or discussions, so he instructed me to handle these matters."

"Previously, I have visited Cangjian Pavilion and Yin Yang Mansion, and Cangjian True Monarch and True Monarch of Yin and Yang both directly agreed, with no issues."

"Only your sect remains."

"Previously, Fellow Daoist Qingyun seemed to have agreed, so what is Fellow Daoist Qi Chuan’s opinion?"

Upon hearing this, Qi Chuan turned his head to look at the Qingyun True Monarch beside him.

Qingyun True Monarch said: "Junior Brother Qi Chuan, don’t you need a Tier Four Middle Grade Demon Beast Core? I believe this mission is relatively safe, and upon completion, the two of us can obtain two Tier Four Middle Grade Demon Beast Cores, which will greatly benefit your cultivation. What do you think?"

Qi Chuan nodded.

He understood Senior Brother Qingyun’s intentions.

A few years ago, he had confided to Senior Brother Qingyun about his need for a Tier Four Middle Grade Demon Beast Core.

Senior Brother Qingyun remembered, but had not been able to obtain many Tier Four Middle Grade Demon Pills.

Now, they have an opportunity to obtain two, and if it seems like a good harvest and is safe, it is naturally worth doing.

However, Senior Brother Qingyun did not know that for now, he would not be lacking in Tier Four Middle Grade Demon Pills.

"As for safety, Fellow Daoist Qi Chuan need not worry at all."

At this moment, Ji Feng also spoke: "Your task is simply to use the Treasure-Seeking Mouse to find the Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon. You don’t need to confront it."

"Furthermore, with this demon’s strength, only a Quasi-Great True Monarch can deal with it. Naturally, it’s not something you can handle."

"Once you encounter it, you need only entangle it slightly and immediately notify my Senior Brother Jin Wuchen to come and resolve it. In moments of crisis, you can also temporarily flee, and the Ancient Spirit Sect will not hold you accountable."

After hearing Ji Feng’s words, Qi Chuan pondered for a moment.

Finally, he nodded and agreed: "Alright, I indeed need a Tier Four Middle Grade Demon Beast Core recently. Two of them are enough to move me."

"However, I have one request, which is that the demon beast core we are rewarded with needs to be of good quality, at least of upper middle quality!"

The quality of demon beast cores within the same realm actually has little to do with the beast’s strength, but rather depends on the beast’s species.

Take the hunting target, the Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon; in terms of strength, it is almost equivalent to a Quasi-Great True Monarch among human cultivators.

But its inner core is merely of middle-lower quality.

Qi Chuan’s revealed intention was that he needs beast cores of high-quality demon species.

"Alright, your Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect has dual Nascent Soul Middle Stages, I am willing to give you face, unlike Cangjian Pavilion and Yin Yang Mansion, who have no possibility of bargaining with us Ancient Spirit Sect."

Ji Feng gently smiled, not caring too much, and agreed.

Then, he patted a Spirit Beast Bag hanging at his waist.

A mass of light enveloped a small mouse-type demon beast as it soared up.

It was about the size of half a palm, with gray fur all over, except for the tips of its ears, tail tip, and nose, which shimmered with gold.

Elsewhere, it was entirely unremarkable gray.

Its physique was also extremely weak.

However, from within, it faintly emitted the aura of a Tier Three Demon Beast.

"This is a Treasure-Seeking Mouse cultivated by our Ancient Spirit Sect. Become familiar with it first, and be careful not to lose it or accidentally kill it, otherwise you’ll have to compensate, and I’m afraid you can’t afford that."

Ji Feng handed the first Treasure-Seeking Mouse to Qingyun True Monarch.

Only then did he take out the second and hand it to Qi Chuan.

Qi Chuan curiously played with the clean and somewhat adorable Treasure-Seeking Mouse, which even emitted some pleasant fragrance.

"This is Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon’s excrement. When looking for the Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon, you need to let the Treasure-Seeking Mouse sniff it in advance to remember the scent."

Ji Feng then took out two objects that resembled square stones.

Qi Chuan took one, which was really indistinguishable from stone, very hard, impossible to break, with no scent at all.

"This jade slip records the spell to control them. You need to cultivate it in advance."

Finally, Ji Feng took out a jade slip and placed it on the table.

Qi Chuan picked it up and looked at it, and indeed it contained a control spell for spirit beasts.

[You have read the Treasure-Seeking Mouse control spell, try to comprehend its entry, trigger thirty times crit, obtain thirty times the harvest, and your comprehension progress of the Treasure-Seeking Mouse control spell has been slightly enhanced.]

Very quickly, he finished reading it once, and a line of text emerged before him.

Qi Chuan felt that in his mind, there was significantly more understanding related to the Treasure-Seeking Mouse control spell.

"This control spell is actually quite uncommon, it can be applied to other mouse-type spirit beasts to a certain extent. If this were a normal circumstance, you wouldn’t easily be allowed to directly comprehend it; this is also your luck."

Ji Feng said at this time from the side.

"Fellow Daoist Ji Feng, this Treasure-Seeking Mouse looks extremely remarkable. I wonder if it is possible to purchase one from your sect?" Qi Chuan asked.

"Impossible, don’t even think about it." Ji Feng glanced at Qi Chuan, lightly fanning with the paper fan in his hand, said indifferently.

"Alright, you have three days."

"In three days, regardless of your familiarity with the Treasure-Seeking Mouse and the control spell, you must immediately set off to hunt the Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon."

With that, Ji Feng rose to leave.

"Fellow Daoist Ji Feng, take care."

Qingyun True Monarch stood up and escorted Ji Feng to the outside of the hall, with Qi Chuan following behind.

Swoosh!

Ji Feng’s escape light shot into the distance, eventually disappearing beyond the mountain gate of Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect.

Qingyun True Monarch breathed a sigh of relief, turned to Qi Chuan, and said: "Junior Brother Qi Chuan, we must quickly familiarize ourselves with the Treasure-Seeking Mouse and cultivate the control spell for it, to avoid mistakes later..."

"Senior Brother Qingyun, actually my Nascent Soul height has reached five inches nine, entering the Quasi-Great True Monarch Realm." However, Qi Chuan suddenly spoke at this time.
